From 3269a51a55841c98540709dda2beb2a73f96ef50 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Arkadiusz=20Mi=C5=9Bkiewicz?= Date: Mon, 21 Nov 2011 21:49:37 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] xfs_repair is recommended over xfs_check. MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit I see "use xfs_repair instead of xfs_check" hint on xfs@irc, mailing lists and other places but the first source of information (xfs_check man page) doesn't mention this. Improve that.
